Paleo Diet

Before the dawn of civilization, before bread and corn and cheese and refined sugar…. before all of that, what did we eat? That’s the question asked by dieters choosing the paleo diet; a diet that wants to strip away the fluff and get right down to the bones of healthy eating. While there are a bunch of paleo variations, this is the diet for the guy or gal who loves meat and fresh veggies, seafood, nuts, seeds and fruit. By doing away with frivolous calories like dairy, carbs, starches (here’s lookin’ at you, potatoes!) and sugary, refined foods you’ll soon see positive results in a number of ways. Dairy is linked to heart complications and also causes nasty mucus build up. Simple carbohydrates like bread are linked to weight gain and high blood sugar levels.

There are a couple of drawbacks to consider with a paleo diet: for one it can be hard to get a good balance of foods you like to eat regularly with this diet…not gonna lie, it can get kinda boring. All that fresh produce and meat can be hard on the wallet as well so money could be an issue but if you are cool with eating cheap chicken legs 7and discount produce then you’re on the right track!
